Two short stories.

The writer desires to relieve his mind by
telling couple of stories. One of them is
original and the other is not. One is true,
the other is false.
When | was a boy | attended circus
performance in Woodstown and | shall
never shall forget the following story relat-
ed by the clown: "While standing on
the suspension bridge at Niagara Falls
one day." said the joker, II concluded to
amuse the spectators by jumping off the
bridge into the torrent below. | made the
Jump, but had not fallen far before | be-
gan to fear that | would be hurt or drown
ed, so | turned around and jumped back
on the bridge again. AT this point the
ringmaster cracked loudly his whip and
fairly shouted, "Stop! the audience won't
the clown. ''Then why do you tell it?'
excitedly asked the ringmaster. ''Be-
cause" said the clown, whenever | tell
story, | always tell whopper"
The occasional fabulous items by s.X''
in the Sunbeam invariably remind me of
the joke told by that clown, and am in
clined to think there exists relationship
between the two.
Now comes the story which is literally
tue. 1t is rabbit story and is now in
season. One pleasant morning, some fifty
years ago, stout young lad while saun-
terinc across a grassy field not far from
Woodstown, caught sight of large,
fat and sleek rabbit snugly crouch
ed by the side of stump in cluster of
of tall weeds and briars. The boy wanted
that rabbit, but how was he to get it? He
studied awhile and resolved upon this plan.
Not far off was house and the man who
lived there had flint-lock musket he
would lend. Backing quietly off from the
coveted rabbit the boy lost no time in secur-
ing a loan of the gun and getting back to
his game. He had never before shot a
rabbit, but he was going to try now and
he was in great suspense at the undertake
ing. After looking at the printing on his
mnsket he took careful aim and pulled the
trigger. The only response was ''click.
Darn it." he muttered, the gun ain t
| loaded" and to convince himself he put
the muzzle to his mouth and blew down
the barrel to see il it was clean. But while
in the act of blowing, the boy noticed the
powder family flashing and sputtering IN
the pan. Thinking the rusty gun might
after all 90 off he quickly reversed the
piece, took aim a second time and in few
seconds off went the gun and dead lay Tho
rabbit. The boy became a man grown
still lives and enjoys life, resides in Woods
town, and if the reader wants the story
proven he has but to ask Barclay Edwards
il he remembers how he killed his hrs
rabbit.

Up to this time the murderer Of
William TeFbush has not come and
given himself up. The officers Of
Justice have carefully examined the
material at hand but have found no
definste cleu. Here the matter seems
doomed TO rest, but why? Simply
because the officers are not paid for
such extraordinary services. Can 10
be that our sense Of right and Jus
tice are 80 dull that we will allow q
base and atrOelous murder TO GU
without putting forth any effort TO
detect the murderer? IL there any
less responsibility resting on us be-
cause the murdered man CHANGED to

not his blood cry from the ground

Is our property so much deafer to US
than our lives that the county can
not afford 70 offer q small reward 70

Our police officers can not be eX-
pected to use their time and money
10 the search. The disposition shown
by the county to give no assistance

should incur some expense In the

security from detection. Let as

The shove condensation Of good
sense will apply equally we'll TO Sa-
line county. The Beck murder, the
Dry Greek affair, and numerous
other transactions have passed by
almost unheeded, and after the
lapse Of q few weeks or months, are
nearly forgotten. No wonder crime
is on the increase In this free eoun-

running down criminals, and no aid
